We celebrate the good but magnify the bad. We forget the Lord’s promises in fear—but the disciples turned to Jesus because they knew that even in the face of fear, Jesus had authority.Whatever the trouble or the fear is, remember that the God of the storm is in the boat with you.

There’s absolutely nothing like being who God made you to be and doing what God has made you to do.

In Philippians 2, we see that Jesus humbled Himself in order to bring us salvation.

In the midst of all this chaos, to stand firm, stay together, rejoice together, let your gentleness be known, and meditate on the peace of God rather than the bad news all over.

When we cry out to God, He answers. He is our battle cry and our faith in Him is our deliverance.

When our eyes are set on the Lord, we find our strength in Him! Psalm 91 reminds us that He is our shield and our defender.

We are no strangers to brokenness and tragic situations in our world. Sometimes those tragic circumstances lead to more brokenness. Mercifully, God responds to such brokenness not with condemnation, but with kindness that leads to repentance and healing.

Jesus can change any life, break any addiction, and overcome any hardship, and as none of us knows how many days are left to us, no excuses should keep us from cementing our relationship with Christ and our salvation through Him.

God calls on the spiritually strong to gently restore those who have gotten tangled in sin. It's the church's built-in restoration process! God's design is not that believers remain useless and broken, but for brothers and sisters in Christ who are walking by the spirit to correct and encourage those are struggling. When done right, it's a cycle that continues through the ages. Are we walking by the Spirit? Are we living in such a way that we can participate in the restoration process?

Nothing makes a father more proud of his kids than seeing them respond to the Gospel. Paul felt that pride over his spiritual children at the church at Colossae, and our Heavenly Father takes pride in His children who are firmly rooted in the Gospel.
